Griff, I've lived in areas in both MO & KY where it was 300+ plus feet  
through solid rock to hit water.  Or not!  No guarantees.  Many  couldn't manage to 
'bore' that deep!  
 
I've lived in AR where the water table is/was less than 25 feet.  Hard  to 
find 'sweet' water!  
 
Now, I live 30-400 feet from a contaminated creek that has the potential to  
trap me during a rare KY monsoon!  County water is popular.  
 
It's fun to live in different places!
